Saban Films has released the trailer for Cell, the latest cinematic Stephen King adaptation, which stars John Cusack as Clay Riddell, an everyman in the midst of a technological apocalypse. When a mysterious signal is broadcast across mobile networks, reprogramming the minds of ordinary people worldwide into mindless, bloodthirsty savages, Clay bands together with a group of fellow survivors, including Samuel L. Jackson and Isabel Fuhrman, to trek across the ravaged remains of New England in search of his son.

Directed by Paranormal Activity 2 helmer Tod Williams, the apocalyptic sci-fi horror is based on the Stephen King novel of the same name. King adapted the screenplay alongside Adam Alleca, who previously penned the 2009 remake of Last House on the Left. Cell will arrive on VOD June 10th before arriving in theaters on July 8th. Watch the trailer below.

When a powerful signal is broadcast across mobile networks worldwide, cell phone users’ minds are instantly and dangerously re-programmed. Heading north through New England in search of his wife and son, Clay Riddell (Cusack) is joined by a group of survivors hoping to fend off the bloodthirsty and hyper-connected “phoners.”

He was one of my favourite actors of the 90s, but holy shit has he made a TON of garbage the past 15 years.

Yeah, sucks he's not the draw he used to be. In recent years I thought he was awesome in the Raven and I thought Hot Tub Time Machine was a funny comedy, but yeah he's been pumping out mediocre stuff for checks. I hope he gets back to the good stuff. The guy rocks. This movie doesn't look that bad.
